Jordan you said you completely free floated the barrel was there a point in the barrel channel toward the end of the stock were it pressed up against the barrel
No. One side of the stock near the receiver was touching the barrel. Definitely not the type of pressure point that is conducive to accuracy.
TopCat,
I thought that as well, until I used a compressible spacer underneath the aluminum block, and after tightening the action screws, I was able to see that the aluminum block is being fitted correctly between the action and the stock. The screws are not making contact with the inside of the pillars. I will most likely sand down the pillars to just below the surface of the stock so that the action does not make contact.
I tried 3 different scopes in order to eliminate the scope as the potential cause of the problem.
I will place the chrony farther away and report back.
Thanks for all the advice so far, keep it coming!
